The Crowd at the Green Dragon revisited

A short while ago we published a photo of a crowd of people (mostly men) at the Green Dragon in 1950. Steve and Nicki at the pub hope to recreate a similar scene soon and the idea has attracted a lot of attention. And as a result we have the names of most of the people in the photo.

This was the photo.

Below we have numbered the people.

And now the names as supplied (some guessed) by Gordon and a couple of names suggested by Wilf. Thanks to both

Mary Dawson, the landlady

Jerry Dawson, the landlord

Possibly the Dawson’s son

Wilf Jenks

Ed Potter (who was Mrs Elisha’s father)

Terry Bolton (always known as Bimbo)

Ron Ellis

Ben Hurkett

Charlie Golding

Not known – possibly surname Cox

Fred Burt

Fred Hurle

Aubrey Chapman

Frank Potter, brother of Ed

Mrs Cooper who was Aubrey Chapman’s grandmother

Ernie Hayball

Possibly Mr Cooper

Puzzle Burt

Possibly Wiggy Burgess

Bill Sainsbury

Best of luck to the Green Dragon in doing their recreation.
